Summary
Jonathan Dobson is a Principal Software Engineer with over a decade of experience building resilient storage and cloud infrastructure, currently contributing to OpenShift and sig-storage at Red Hat. He has led product-defining work from redesigning remote replication at Oracle into a disaster-recovery-grade service to driving performance gains in IBM’s block storage and instrumenting Wells Fargo’s server fleet with a production data collection framework. Comfortable shipping across storage, compute, and platform boundaries, he combines hands-on optimization, release leadership, and team-building to raise engineering standards. Based in the Denver area, he favors pragmatic automation and observability—often surfacing subtle cross-system failure modes before they reach customers. Colleagues know him for steady technical leadership, thoughtful mentoring, and improving processes as well as code.
